In fishing (and in fishing magazines), sex sells. I’m talking gear porn -- the latest, licorice-infused, neutral buoyancy, holographic-insert swimbait; the million modulus cross-scrim graphite casting rod; the titanium fly reel, shiny as a freshly minted coin. You know what? I don’t care how pretty the glitter you take to the water. You won’t catch the time of day on freshwater lakes if you don’t pay attention to the weather. Take this quiz to improve your ability to forecast the fishing, and then go catch a few with the gear between your ears.
